Duck that was a vector from workshop

Here is a duck vector illustration i did in one of petes workshops. I am pleased with it but it took a long time to achieve this illustration, since then i have gone away n practised drawing in lustrator. I can now draw faster n cleaner images. I was set aback hy how hard it was to draw such a simple drawing in the workshop, that i went away and set a target to learn how to draw quickly and to draw professional looking images in illustrator.

workshop

This is an image from a workshop we did with pete on creating a image from scratch in photoshop. Compared to the illustrator workshop, i found this workshop a hundred times easier. The only new thing that i learnt was going to the render option and adding lighting into an image. Even though i feel happy using photoshop, i now that there is still loads to learn and not to stop learning stuff about it just because i feel comfatable using it.

Spine team pages

train diagrams detailed

Above is a link to a really good website that has very detailed diagrams of electric locomotive trains, this i could use for content on my pages or use in artwork for the webpages.  i will play around with both.  I am not sure though how i could connect this with the nervous system.  I could maybe have a diagram of the nervous system layered on top? or have the two different diagrams and show the differences.

drafts of designs for my individual pages

 

Here are some drafts of some designs for the website.  These will be used on my three pages for the human body website, where i will write about trains energy needs and how the nervous system is similar to trains travelling all around the world. i prefer the image on the top, this is because the tube map layered on the image looks like nervers or veins underneath the skin. I think this will look good with the design that we have set out for our pages.

simple simple version (nervous system)

some good videos we said as a group that when we write information for our website project on the spine would be written aimed to kids. This is so it is readable for alot of people, and not to over complicate the subject. We want to find a line when we write our information to not to over complicate tye subjext but not to undermine the audience by writing too "dum". Here are a group of links to various sites explaining the subject of tye spine
